I laugh when people think Tinubu have got that kind of power or influence. Do not wail by the time Lawan and Buhari turn against him. No Northerner can be loyal to a southerner. Senator Lawan will only use Tinubu Bullion van to get to power and dump him as usual. You can't be a Senate president and be taking orders from an Ex. Governor

you can say that again

Trust my people, the fake Jews. They can do anything to bring PMB and Tinubu down.

Sponsored by one of the Senate presidential aspirants to de-market Sen. Lawan. I see Sen. Ndume all written on this post.

The guy that wrote this is dummy, Tinubu this Tinubu that, is it a crime to be political legendary while you are still alive? It is far far far better to be control by Tinubu than to follow PDP elements.

Ahmed Lawan: Before PMB Crowns An Enemy, By Abdullahi Suleiman

As the lobbying and skimming for the office of the Senate President in the 9th Assembly begins, the news of President Mohammadu Buhari backing a certain Senator Ahmed Lawan is one that should worry any progressive-minded individual who loves President Buhari and wants him to be successful in establishing a lasting legacy.

Perhaps those who are marketing Senator Lawan to President Buhari only mentioned the fact that he is a ranking senator with lengthy years of legislative experience. They also must certainly have reiterated his deceptive simplicity as a unique selling point. But that is as far as the good side of Lawal goes. Yet, anybody who wants to be first and among equals, especially in a volatile and combustible place like the senate with 109 members, needs a lot more to succeed.

To begin with, President Buhari is being sold a dummy with the image created of Senator Lawan as an open-minded individual who will provide the necessary legislative support in order to accelerate government programmes and policies. The truth, which has been cleverly hidden from Mr. President, is that Senator Lawan is merely a front for his masters who see him as a competent instrument to hold in case they lose favor in the sight of the President. Senator Lawan is merely contesting for the Senate President position on behalf of both Asiwaju Bola Tinubu and the APC Chairman, Comrade Adam Oshiomole.

Although this is one of the best kept secrets since after the re-election of President Buhari for second term; insiders who are privy to the thinking and plans of Asiwaju Tinubu have shared this information with a number of people believed to be close to Mr. President. Whether or not the information has reached the President himself is an entirely new issue. However, for the unconditional love some of us have for PMB; I have taken it upon myself to warn the Presidency of the danger ahead of its chosen path with Lawan.

Information I have gathered from reliable sources within Asiwaju Tinubu camp indicates that Jagaban is not feeling secure since after the election. He felt that his inability to impressively deliver the South West for APC in the 2019 presidential election has significantly lowered his standing before President Buhari. He also suspects that PMB may begin to disengage from him immediately after his swearing in for second term in May. The absence of President Buhari at the yearly Bola Tinubu colloquium held yesterday, 28th March, 2019, even though the event took place in Abuja; was cited by some of Tinubu’s close political allies as a sign that Buhari is beginning to show Jagaban the red flag. To therefore prepare for what my source called ‘the imminent war’, Chief Bola Tinubu has decided to place the control of National Assembly firmly in the hands of his longtime associate, Senator Ahmed Lawan.

Already, Tinubu has secured the backing and cooperation of the party’s national chairman, Comrade Adam Oshiomole who has taken it upon himself to play the devil’s advocate around President Buhari while at the same time marketing the candidacy of Lawan to as many members of the party’s NWC as possible. The truth, which I have validated from more than three of my usually reliable sources, is that Tinubu is in alliance with Oshiomole to plant Senator Ahmed Lawan as the Senate President as a plan B option in case President Buhari begins to show Tinubu cold shoulders.

In desperation, Senator Lawan, who has been in the National Assembly since 1999, first as a member of House of Representatives and in the Senate since 2007 to date; has pledged to serve the interest of Tinubu and Oshiomole, two southerners who will not be affected by any irresponsible act that Senator Lawan may perpetrate when and if he becomes the President of the Senate. For someone like Senator Lawan who has been in the Senate for almost twenty years without any verifiable benefit to his constituency in Yobe State; pandering to the dictates of Tinubu and Oshiomole would not be a challenging thing to do. Moreover, Senator Lawan himself has told his associates that if he succeed in becoming the Senate President; then all praises and thanks should go to Asiwaju Tinubu who has committed himself to getting him (Lawan) into that office since 2015.

Indeed, the Senate President position is zoned to the North East. But of what benefit will a Senator Lawan be to the zone if he is micromanaged by southerners? Again, it is not as if Lawan's long years in the senate have translate to deep experience; if one remembers that as Chairman of the 7th Senate Committee on public finance, all the financial atrocities that Sanusi Lamido Sanusi as CBN governor alleged under Goodluck Jonathan was traced back to the same Senator Ahmed Lawan. What would therefore be the justification for a PMB whose singular trademark is integrity to now be seen openly endorsing and canvassing for a tainted man to lead the senate. This is not something I think President Buhari can justify either to himself or his conscience.

If President Buhari is looking for a strong character to manage the senate, he needs to look beyond an enemy presently disguised as friend. If for any reason Lawan becomes the senate president, then PMB must know that he has handed over the legislative arm of government to Tinubu to control as he deem fit. If that happens, I guarantee that it is a gaffe that President Buhari would come back to regret in no distant time. I pray God opens the inner eyes of the President and his men to see beyond the dummies that is being sold to them about Senator Ahmed Ibrahim Lawan.

The OP is certainly high on Umuahias weed, Ndume that is an alleged boko haram sympathizer and supporter is the one to support for the senate presidency?

Continue, last last you will be ok,

Tinubu is all I see here. Nothing substantial.

KingOfAllIgbos:


He is the Don. Capo Di Tutti Capi. Boss of all Bosses.

The more flattrons abuse and bash him because of envy, the greater he becomes.

Whatever influence you may believe he has is tied to apc.
He is relevant because apc is at the centre thanks to buhari.
When pdp was at the centre, tinubu was somewhere playing Lagos politics. He knew his place and stayed there.

When pdp returns back to the centre, tinubu would be cut back down to his original size.

Simple thruth...
History has shown us that the North dont betray each other....
I hope folks in the SW, SS and SE can learn this simple fact...

Make buhari comot first. Una go know scores then.

You see the way pdp is clearing Northern governorship elections.

Be very afraid.

This is an unintelligent and selfish attempt peculiarly tailored by northern distraught . I feel with this kind of evil politics, Nigeria will go nowhere. Where was this writer when Buhari was depending and romancing Tinibu for votes? I am neither a Buhari nor Tinibu supporter because I believe they have nothing new to contribute to Nigeria"s growth. It's absolutely a sorry the for this country. May God help us

Arrant Nonsense..

ProudBoy:
Tinubu this Tinubu that. You people will just kill yourself because of pure hatred. God has really blessed that man.

The same way God blessed one Cash Madam (Edionsere) in Abeokuta.

Maybe reward for the role he play in the rigging

Despite all the humiliation he faced since 2015 from the administration he helped put in power, he graciously offered to help steady Buhari's capsizing vessel last year. We all remember how Buhari and apc were almost blown away a few months ago like a dried tumbleweed until Tinubu and oshiomole stepped in. You people cheered on thinking oshiomole was destroying the party. Now you people want to paint them as the enemies of Buhari. Buhari is not all that stupid like people think, he will forever owe his gratitude to Tinubu and oshiomole for weeding out the moles he thought were his loyalists and handing a last minute lifeline when he was already on the edge of the cliff. The writer should take it or leave it, Tinubu and oshiomole are buhari's (tested and proven) political brain box.

Who wrote this stupid article?

Wait... don't tell me.

I know.

Who else but Reno O'mockery of course!

Your thinking faculty is pretty much intact.

Keep it up.

No hate here. You can store this for future reference. What do you mean the Don? Does he have power over the arm forces or over any other tiers of government? He only have influence because Buhari allowed him to use some government tool to achieve his re-election. You call him Don, because when he uses tout freely, no one challenge him. That's because Buhari want re-election. He's no Don but part of the tools used by Buhari.

has tinubu not bn winning elections evn before pmb came to power?haters everywhere

But you love Senator Ike Ekweremadu who has been in the Senate since 2003 and has just won his 5th term?

LadyHeaven:
Lol, one man has been in power since 1999? I have never heard any tangible bill or progressive happenings from the name Lawan..
